It’s also free from collagen and gelatin, which is not a bad thing if you want to increase your pure protein intake without consuming extra ingredients with it.

It’s a great source of all essential amino acids, and rich in BCAA’s (Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine, which are the most important amino acids for muscle building and recovery) unlike any other competitor on the market.

But here’s something to take note of:

Although the manufacturer claims that this product is absolutely “Paleo friendly” and tested for purity etc, whole food supplements should not contain any type of artificial sweeteners like acesulfame and sucralose, which you can find in MHP IsoPrime 100% BEEF.

Paleo friendly? I don’t think so.

Anyways, as long as you are not a Paleo fanatic, this product is still definitely worth a try.

When it comes to the taste, MHP has patented their unique system, called TasteTech™ – great taste, pleasantly sweet, but with zero sugar (1). Here’s a statement of the company on their website:

Caution: Recently, some brands are labeling their products as beef protein isolate. We aren’t sure how this is possible due to the fact that only MHP and MuscleMeds have an exclusive supply agreement for USDA recognized BPI. We can’t be certain, but we presume they are using collagen (also referred to as hydrolyzed gelatin).

Benefits

When it comes to quality, Beef is by far one of the most bio available sources of protein known to man (2).

Unlike other protein sources like whey and soy, it’s absolutely free from lactose and allergens, which makes it a perfect supplement for anyone, who wants to increase muscle size, strength levels and maintain optimal health, without any risks or harmful consequences.

But consuming large amounts of red meat on a daily basis is not the best thing you can do, as there’s plenty of fat in it. And while you shouldn’t avoid fat by any means, you should try to keep it in the normal ranges.

This is easily achievable with MHP IsoPrime 100% BEEF. It delivers you the benefits of red meat without the extra fat and cholesterol.

Side Effects

Keep in mind, this supplement contains both acesulfame and sucralose.

Some people are intolerant to artificial sweeteners, which could lead to stomach problems and even diarrhea. However, there aren’t any side effects known from the usage of Julian MHP IsoPrime 100% BEEF.

Using this product is not recommended only if you’ve ever experienced allergic symptoms like nausea, sickness or rashes from some of the main ingredients.

Note that some people are intolerant to animal sources of food, so if you feel that meat is not your best friend, then you should consider a vegetarian/vegan protein supplement that is pea, soy or hemp based.

How to take IsoPrime

The best time to take MHP IsoPrime is in the morning in order to stop the catabolic state of your body and start providing it with anabolic amino acids for rapid recovery, especially if you are looking to increase your muscle mass.

You also want to take the supplement after a workout to increase protein synthesis for immediate growth stimulus, and before bed, to ensure the proper feeding of your muscles during the night.

However, if you feel that you need to simply increase your overall protein intake, feel free to take it at any time of the day.

You can easily mix it with water or milk, or even use it for other delicious recipes like protein muffins and smoothies, as the taste of beef is completely removed from it.
